Executive Director’s Report

As Moorelands (formerly the DCA) celebrates its 100th Anniversary this year, we honour the people – the generations of volunteers, staff, donors, supporters and advisors – who are responsible for 100 years of innovative, dynamic and persistent work to improve the lives of socially and economically disadvantaged children and families in the City of Toronto. We rejoice in Moorelands’ long history of creative work responding to, and reducing barriers posed by poverty, while creating opportunities for the well-being of vulnerable children, their families and neighbourhoods. With its rich history in community service to a variety of at-risk communities, for the past 15 years Moorelands has chosen to focus exclusively on its work with low-income children and youth. Last year alone, Moorelands provided more than 1,000 children and youth from some of the poorest neighbourhoods in this City with opportunities to gain new skills, competencies and strategies to help them meet the challenges of adolescence and adulthood. Recognizing that investment in children will yield benefits to both the individuals served and to their families and communities for generations, Moorelands has become a model service provider using evidence-based practices grounded in both academic and field research with a rigorous internal and external evaluation regime. As we look to the future, our vision is to become one of Toronto’s leading providers of evidence-based out-of- school programs for disadvantaged children and youth. With your support, we can change the course of children’s lives and replicate our model of success throughout low-income Toronto neighbourhoods. It is true that we live in uncertain economic times. According to Imagine Canada`s recent Sector Monitor, over 25% of charities regard themselves as being at risk. Demand for services remains high, and many charities are experiencing difficulties carrying out their mission. That said, we take comfort in the fact that our venerable charity has weathered two World Wars and the Great Depression. In fact, Moorelands has not only survived for 100 years, it has thrived. With this in mind, we look forward with optimism and confidence, and hope we can count on you to be our partners on the exciting journey into the future. 1912 Under the leadership of Canon R.J. President’s Report Moore, Rector of St. George’s, 6 downtown parishes of the Anglican 2011 marked the end of an eventful 99 years.

Above all, we will strive to continue to earn your support and confidence as able stewards of your gifts and to make a difference in the lives of the children we serve and the urban community we live in. The Intention behind our Programs Moorelands’ programs are evidence-based and “intentional” and all our fun activities are designed to help kids build on one or more of the 4 C’s (competence, confidence, character and connections) which are the building blocks of the Positive Youth Development practised at Moorelands. We intend that children gain skills, experience personal growth, gain confidence and make friends. The activities we offer are not only fun but provide a means for children to learn, experience and practise important life skills and strategies that help prepare them to meet the challenges of adolescence. Using a strength-based approach, we teach young people how to make good choices; help them to build social, emotional and cultural competence; provide them with opportunities to develop confidence and self-esteem; and connect them with caring adults and their communities. Research tells us that youth who are connected with their community and have good role models are less likely to participate in delinquent behaviour. Competent children are more likely to experience academic and interpersonal success, and youth who practise positive character traits such as trustworthiness, respect and responsibility make good citizens. A key factor that sets Moorelands’ programs apart from others is our aim to honour both the individual and the community. Moorelands honours the child as an individual, recognizing that character, competence and confidence will have lasting effects on both their academic and personal success. We also equally honour the communities to which the child belongs and will belong; Moorelands recognizes the importance of cultural, linguistic, and religious heritage and belonging, while maintaining the goal of a cohesive, cooperative and competitive city. The country of origin and the beliefs of the child are honoured and seen as a gift and opportunity for building a vibrant, progressive city rather than as a challenge Research Research to be dealt with.

Our Family Programs Baby Bundles It is natural for all expectant moms to feel some anxiety about the impending arrival of their newborn. It is an especially anxious time when money is really, really tight. Moorelands co-ordinates the hand-delivery of a free baby bundle to new mothers via a nurse or service worker who uses all the wonderful items provided as teaching aids and a means of establishing a bond. These bundles of basic supplies such as diapers, soaps, shampoos, blankets, clothing and much more, are assembled by our dedicated volunteers. This one-of-a-kind Toronto program helps to ensure that these mothers in need can provide the necessities for their infant, and their interaction with their worker helps them become connected to their community. Countless volunteers lovingly knit and crochet baby sweaters, booties, bonnets and blankets that become part of the bundle. These personal items send a message of caring and support to struggling young mothers, and help to restore dignity and hope.

“My clients and I are very pleased and appreciative of these baby bundles. Joy, happiness, relief, and a sense that someone cares for them are some of the reactions I see when I bring the Moorelands baby bundle. To see their faces and reactions when I bring home a baby bundle is more than any words that can express their gratitude. From my perspective, they not only help the families have a good start for their baby, it also gives them a sense of belonging in a “Canadian” community.” – Toronto Public Health Christmas Sharing Hundreds of individuals, often working together in groups from their churches, offices, or with friends/families, helped to make Christmas memorable for 254 families (over 1,000 individuals) with their donation of time, dedication and gifts. In addition to warm clothing and hand-selected gifts for the children, each family received a grocery store gift card to help purchase items for a special holiday meal. Also, each child in our City Programs received a warm hat and mittens, and a book or game or toy. Our deepest gratitude goes out to all of our 2011 Christmas Sharing donors.
